Talk to the guns

As a famous person once said “There’s an old saying in Tennessee — I know it’s in Texas, probably in Tennessee — that says, fool me once, shame on — [pauses] — shame on you. Fool me — [pauses] — You can’t get fooled again.”

Do you have that creeping feeling inside that something good might be around the corner but your long abused relationship with Turbine might turn out to be another buggy sinkhope of 30 more materials to collect through another grind exercise until your head explodes?

But then you tell yourself – they’ve been good lately. Working with the community to make things ‘better’. And I agree – why I sorta surrender to the idea that underdark is going to be a very good expansion and all the talk about a PrE reset, Epic levels, auto-grouping features will deliver us into the promise that we feel is what DDO had in store for us.

Yes – that’s me shivering in the corner with my face hidden behind my pale bony fingers. That’s me with a frightened open eye glaring out through spread fingertips towards the light that is the expansion. Am I safe?
Is this truly it?

I hope so. Because if I get another open flathand slap followed by cruel laughter I’m going to slip on combat boots and kick a door down or two and chew bubble gum.
